Golf Films

[palindromicbob]

Started to get a wee collection of golf related films.

Just watched The Greatest Game Ever Player and thought it was fantastic even the wife enjoyed it.

Including this so far I've got

Tin Cup
Caddy Shack
The Legend of Bagger Vance (just watching it now)
Happy Gilmore

Any other recommendations.

P.S: I do realise there is an old thread about this subject but it died 3 year ago and hope a new one will get a few more suggestions.

Found this a couple of weeks ago - 1952 black and white - Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn 'Pat and Mike' - Hepburn hit all the golf shots herself

Do you want docu films too because "the short game" on Netflix is quite interesting, it's about a jr tournament they hold every year follows a few of the kids as they compete in and prepare for the event

Watched Stroke of Genius - The Bobby Jones story today - worth a watch

Legend of Bagger Vance is a good film.

Agree - as is Tin Cup . :thup:

 

[davidy233]

Didn't like either Legend or Tin Cup but thought Stroke of Genius and The Greatest Game were both decent movies - special effects suck in both though - you don't need a ball flying towards you at over tree height to get that it's a great shot

What's wrong with Tin Cup and Bagger ?

Following the Sun is meant to be ok but never watched it

A Gentlemans Game: Is a good film.
I liked 'Tin Cup'
'The greatest game ever played' was a good story.
'Follow the Sun' is an older film about Ben Hogan.

I watched 'The Short Game' Saturday night after a mate recommended it... it's a really good film. All 7 & 8 year old kids competing at Pinehurst for the title of best golfer in the world.

Makes you feel a bit inadequate when a 7 year old girl is a better golf than you are though...

I thought Tin Cup and the original Caddyshack were quite good and captured the spirit of golf, but Caddyshack II was just silly!

Does Goldfinger count? There's a bit of golf in it.
